    Brushing Out Pincurls (For Long Hair)?

    My method is similar to AvavanBlythe's. My hair just touches the top of my hips now. It's going to tangle if I look at it wrong, haha. I spray my boar/nylon brush with oil and start at the ends. But I don't use setting lotion. I feel like I don't need it. That might be due to my natural...

    Hahahaha!! I don't know why they call them wings. They are nuggets. They are really good.

    Help creating a 1920s evening/flapper look.

    My avatar--I used my small caruso rollers on the front parts, rolling from part toward ears. I took them out, combed it, and put in wave clips, then sprayed with hairspray and let that dry while I did my makeup. My hair is hip-length, so I had to do a low bun in back. I chose an infinity (a...

    How do you feel about(Vintage) fur?

    I wear faux fur, but I only like trim. I don't know why I don't like full fur coats. Personal preference, I guess. I suppose if I found a vintage piece with real fur trim I might be inclined to wear it since the animal is long gone. I'm not even sure it's about how it makes the coat look, in...

    1940's Eyebrows: Should I Try Them?

    Your eyes are a similar shape to hers. I think they would work for you. Do you have one of those threading places near you? My friends swear by those. You could take that picture in.

    Lunch, Anybody?

    I'm still working on coffee. But I'll probably have http://www.thegrocerygirls.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/K/L/KLVFY.jpg.jpg I'm obsessed. I've been eating them every day with homemade blue cheese dip for over a week. I like to add Frank's Red...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Here's one: people who comment on some obvious malady or condition you have and then get angry when you don't further or encourage the conversation. I was at work when this last happened and it was someone I had never met so I didn't want to discuss my medical info with her. She complained...

    Lunch, Anybody?

    Mexican out with the girls: cheese enchiladas, beans, rice. We sat outside because the weather was downright perfect.

    Any other curly girls in here?

    Lately I find that if I brush out my long bangs I get a natural finger wave and then I just put the rest into a low sideways figure-8 bun. It looks better if I set it, though, as seen in my avatar. That was Caruso rollers and I don't think I even bothered to set the waves with clips like I...

    LMBO We don't have snow left, but it's too cold--in the high 30s. I. am. tired. of. wearing. a. coat.

    Lunch, Anybody?

    We have a semi-local burger joint called Culver's. It has an extensive menu, including several kinds of fish. Anyway, I had a Garden burger and fried cheese curds. I had to leave off half the bun and it was still an indulgent meal. I like this place because it has sugar-free root beer. It's...

    It's almost noon and I haven't even eaten yet. I think I'll go make some eggs.

    We call those boxer briefs in the States, and I've heard some ladies have been known to wear them, since they are comfortable.

    That sounds good. I think I have some split peas in the cupboard somewhere.

    All I've had today has been cheddar and roast beaf sammiches. And a handful of pistachios. Definitely having salad tonight. I need some vegetables!

    Lunch, Anybody?

    I had fries today, which I rarely do. I always treat myself to McDonald's after going to the tax preparer, to celebrate my refund. :D I had eggs and cheese, too, since they have breakfast all day. And I topped it off with a vanilla cone.

    I'm not supposed to have sugar or a lot of starchy foods, so I'll pass. I'm used to it by now.

    Lunch, Anybody?

    I took my friend to Atlanta Bread Company and I had roasted vegetable soup and a half California Avocado sammich. Iced tea on the side. It was nice to have summer food as we watched the snow fall outside (had to go out to get groceries, but it's a day to stay in.)

    Not sure what I'll have. Going grocery shopping today. I think I should make some split pea soup for the weekend.
